I think this is a bug and should be fixed. Thanks, Thorsten PS directories on C: (NTFS) show as 700 or 770 [1] OS is Vista - haven't tested it under XP -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
